Says forward/winger on wiki. 5 caps for Wales 

[McMuffin]

If we’re looking at bringing in 3 forwards he fits the age profile as long as we’re going to sign a more reliable goal scorer.

[Srg]

As long as he’s better than the last forward they gave us.

Reminds me too much of Tom Lawrence, it’s a no from me

Plays mostly as a striker, occasionally as a left winger, and has also played as a 10 and right winger on rare appearances. If he chooses us then I'd imagine we're guaranteeing him a central role, I can't see him dropping down to be played out of position.

The link below says we have made an offer, 

"It is suggested Blackburn and Derby – the Rams have made an offer – are now on red alert and hoping to be Harris’ new home."

Never heard of him, doesn’t seem to find the net a lot - regardless of level he’s been at. Cardiff fans have him down as a trier who lacks quality to be a Championship player. Me, I’d prefer to find players who have ability but may need coaching up to progress as a footballer. 

A low quality footballer, who runs a lot, isn’t exactly what we’re lacking to be honest.

We aint paying 5/6m for him though, Lawrence for a More sensible price would have been a great signing 

we just paid over the odds 

[SK47]

He doesn't have a highlight reel

Even Connor Salmon had a highlight reel

And on that basis alone, its a no.

It’s what Warne wants though 

[Anag Ram]

Do we still have Dobbin?

If so we already have a quick player still learning end product. 
I quite like Dobbin and think if he’s prepared to listen he’ll make it.

Not over-chuffed with this guy Harris’s story but you never know 

[NottsRam77]

5 caps for wales, good age. Im sure absolutely no where near the finished product and probably loads to learn

but obviously has something about him to be in and around the welsh squad

time on his side and im sure warne will back himself it improve him as a player 

oh and hes free 

sounds ok to me as an option 

[DCFC1388]

Being written off already 🤣🤦🏾‍♂️ madness

Because he’s played at Cardiff and therefore must be Lawrence. Really bizarre that one. 

[Ghost of Clough]

There's a reason why a side who would have got relegated without other teams getting points deductions is releasing him. He's a CF who is poor in the air, can't dribble, rarely shoots and doesn't create anything for others.
